KB Bank hacking victims rise to 2,210

KB Kookmin Bank said Monday that an additional 2,091 people were found to have had their personal information compromised in a hacking incident, bringing the total to 2,210, up from the initially reported 119. The newly confirmed victims include 1,631 customers and 460 employees, and the bank stressed this was not a new attack but the result of a detailed re-analysis with regulators and related agencies. Yonhap reports the bank announced the update on its website, saying it was "sorry to customers." The Dong-A Ilbo notes the incident is suspected to involve AI-assisted hacking, and that Mirae Asset Life also confirmed a data leak, prompting financial authorities to conduct an emergency on-site inspection.
